Special requirements

  • Copper Sensitivity

    Like most invertebrates, they are highly sensitive to copper-based medications and fertilizers. Ensure all tank additives are invertebrate-safe.

  • Breeding Precaution

    To maximize survival of young shrimp, use a sponge filter in the breeding aquarium to prevent hatchlings from being drawn into the filtration system.

  • Incompatible Tank Mates

    Should not be housed with loaches, puffers, or larger carnivores that will prey on small invertebrates.
